A protective sheath for covering the needle of a winged needle after use in a medical procedure. The protective sheath is slidably disposed on a tube having a hollow needle at one end and a pair of outwardly projecting flexible wings adjacent the end of the tube with the needle. The protective sheath has a hollow, generally tubular shaped body having a forward end oriented toward the needle and a rearward end oriented away from the needle. The sheath body has at least one longitudinally extending slot commencing at the forward end thereof and extending toward the rearward end for slidably receiving the wings therein to allow at least part of the sheath to be slid past the wings to cover the needle. A guard is provided at the rearward end of the sheath extending radially outwardly from the sheath and at least partially annularly around the sheath.
